バイロのおすすめツーリングルート

スイセンの花と背景にモンテ・ヴァル・オ

Beautiful old town with imposing buildings and views of the mountains.

Accessible by car via a somewhat narrow but recently restored paved road, it is in excellent condition. Ample parking is available. It has a barbecue and picnic area. It's also an excellent starting point for reaching the surrounding peaks.

As Stefano wrote above, the town is built with the mountain techniques of the past centuries: stone and lime. If you are also a good eater, you cannot ignore the recipe for "zuppa di ajucche" from Valchiusella, a traditional dish of the region, made with a wild herb called "ajucche" (or "ajucche" in the local dialect). The typical recipe involves cooking bread, ajucche, and a mature mountain cheese, in overlapping layers, and then moistened with the cooking water of the herbs...

Victoria is yawning with new joints... :-P

A natural spectacle to enjoy in the month of May

Easily accessible on a paved road (unfortunately). Breathtaking view of the plain. In May, the spectacle of the daffodils blooming is unmissable.

Agliè, an enchanting village in the heart of Canavese, boasts a thousand-year history that has its roots in the Roman era. The original nucleus, probably located on the hills of the current hamlet of Santa Maria delle Grazie, was known as "Macunciacum" and depended on the Abbazia Fruttuaria di San Benigno. Agliè, as a fortified village, emerges in documents in 1141, when the feudal lords of Canavese divided the territory. The town became one of the lands of the San Martino di Rivarolo and Agliè, a family that would profoundly mark the history of the village. Despite the feudal struggles that raged in the region, Agliè maintained relative stability, even if it was not immune to looting and devastation. With the arrival of the Savoy, Agliè experienced a period of growth and development. In 1448, the village obtained municipal statutes, a sign of autonomy and recognition. The most emblematic figure of this period was Count Filippo San Martino di Agliè, a man of culture and prominent politician. Minister of Cristina of France, regent of the Duchy of Savoy, Filippo transformed the castle of Agliè into a sumptuous residence, enriching it with works of art and gardens. Today, Agliè is a village that preserves its historical and artistic charm intact. The Ducal Castle, with its gardens and richly decorated rooms, is an unmissable destination for visitors. The streets of the village, with their stone houses and noble palaces, tell the story of a place that has managed to preserve its identity over the centuries.
